Alleged Facts That Arc Not Facts st


There Is, aside from all the other
reprehensiblc features of Governor For
aker's campaign oratory, a loosness, q
recklessness of statement pervading 1t
that is as astonishing as 1t is outrage
Gus. We can not remember an in
stance of a public man of his would-be
prominence who ever treated the mass
of sensible and thinking people as fools
and dupes to the extent that Foraker
has done and continues to do. Or1i-
narily, men who respect themselves.
and who are not wanting in like re-
spcct for their fellow-men, have some
slight regard for truth in their public
utteranccs. Even political scoundrel,
If he has clear head, little foresight
and some knowledge of human nature,
will not attempt to gull his hearers
with alleged facts that are not facts Mt
ALL But, whether from lack of
self-respect or of respect for his
neighbors, from fatal habit that
is the outgrowth of mental
defect, or from some unexplained in
trinity of moral judgment, Mr.. For
aker is seemingly unable to open his
mouth without making the most in
sulting demands upon the credulity
and stupidity of those who listen to
him.
If he did this by means of mere
rhetorical genel alities, it might per-
haps be less surprising; but he boldly
ventures forth upon fields where there
is no room for the legitimate exercise
of the imagination or of appeal to par
tisan prejudice. Public charity is not
limited by any political affiliations, nor
is the science of statistics usually un-
derstood to have any party affinities;
and yet Mr.. Forakers latest and per-
haps his most brazen attempt to hood
wink and dclude the people is based
upon the prostitution of both charity
and statistics to his own personal
and selfish ends. 1t is we'll known that
Mr.. Foraker had scarcely warmed the
gubernatorial chair when he be-
gan to "reorganize" the charitable
institutions of the State, l. O., to turn
out the old trustees and put in new
ones He made it not merely polit-
ical, but personal matter; for even
Republicans, who were not willing to
be his tools, were dismissed and hench-
men, who could be relied upon to do
as they were hidden, were put in their
places. That the Governor assumed a
peculiar responsibility in doing this,
no one will question. He himself, OBJ
tuse as he seems to be on most points
of official accountability and political
honor, is aware of the fact. He knows
that he owes the public, without dis
tinction of party, an account of his
personal stewardship of the State char.
tiles; and he has given it once and
again-once at Toledo and again al
Caldwell. The sequel will show that
possibly he would have done better not
to have given it at all.
Governor Foraker, in justification o.
his administration, so far as thu
State benevolent institutions are
concerned, paraded with grea
triumph table which he alleges wa
compiled by the Board of State Char
tiles" The table purports to show
that all the public institutions, with
single exception, have been managed

The above, which we clip from u
Republican paper, the Cincinnati Com

lesson. The public land which was
recklessly donated to railroad corpora

A Party of Mere Pretenses.

For twenty-five years the Republican
party, or its representatives, have met
in the Legislative halls of the nation,
concocted, passed and enforced laws
not in the interests of labor but to fos-
ter and build up system of labor
crushing monopolies. After the COM
mission of these wrongs against the
wage workers of the country John
Sherman, the principal leader in the
consummation, comes before the peo-
pie of Ohio and says that any working
man who raises hand against the Re-
publican party aims blow at his own
vital interests. What effrontery! The
Republican party may pretend to be
the friend of labor, but the working
man know that, Judas Iscariot like, it
sold out the men who made it powerful
for the coins of the tempter The Re-
publican party is party of mere pre-
lenses, and for Sherman or any one
else to say that it has been friend of
the laboring classes is simply to make
statement which has not one word Of
truth in it.

One Republican paper after another
comes brazenly to the front and says
that the Republican party is not in

is talking about At any rate he says;

THE PUBLIC DOMAIN.
Lands for Railroad Corporations-Powell
Was Right.

Was Right.
The Republican press, and also For
aker in his Cambridge speech, preten-
tiously claim that Mr. Powell was egre-
giously wrong when he declared in his
Hamilton speech that "until the Re-
publican party had come into power
not an acre of public land had ever
been granted to railroad corporations.
General Powell was right. No grants
had ever been made to railroad corpo-
rations prior to 1862, when the Repub-
lican party was in full and unobstruct-
ed power. The land grants made by
Congress previous to that time were
made to the States for the purpose of
encouraging internal improvements,
and the States were held accountable
for the lands.
Take the first grant of land in aid of
a railroad, that under which the Illi-
nois Central was built. The grant was
made to the State of Illinois-she char
tered the railroad company-and in the
charter required the company to pay
from five to seven per cent of its gross
income to the State up to 1880. That
company had paid to the State of Illi-
nois over $4,000, 900, and the amount
now annually paid into the State treas
ury is about $3.50, 900. Thus it will be
seen the land was not granted to a rail
road corporation but to the State, and
the latter did not give such lands to the
company, but securing per cent. of
the gross receipts. now realizes a
handsome income. In 1862. when the
Republican party was in power, were
the first direct grants to railroad cor
porations made. General Powell was
right a.
The record of the two parties upon
the wholesale granting of lands to
railroads is in strong contrast. 1t was
under Republican rule and Republican
methods that within nine years 1922.
100000 acres of land were granted to
railroad syndicates. The restoration
of the Democrats to power in the House
in 1874 stopped this robbery of the
public domain, and Democratic
House and the Democratic leaders have
been the means of restoring millions oi
acres to the Government and people by
declaring forfeited lands which compa
nies have not earned, by failing to full
fill their contracts The Republican
party acted upon the theory of public
lands for railroad kings, while thu
Democratic party has insisted that thu
lands were for the people.
